Yeah i think he is, did she write some article on him slating him?

It's a pathetic situation. I don't know Louise, but have read her article and I can understand why Marwan is a little upset with her. I believe the quote along the lines of "the club seem to come second to raising the owners profile..." was the one which took her article that one step too far. I cant imagine many Salford fans agreeing with her opinion too much, all this after the man had not only saved the club but invested thousands on players such as Rangi Chase, Gareth Hock and Tim Smith in restoring some competitiveness into Salford and Super League. He didn't deserve that.

Don't get me wrong, everyone is entitled to their opinion, but when their opinion is rude, unjust and derogatory then you need to accept the consequences that come with that. All parties need to move on and Louise especially needs to concentrate on just supporting Salford.

On a similar note, it is scary to think of some of the applicants that may apply for this role. I think it is a fantastic idea, but I am worried about the individuals which might be selected. I can imagine the contributors from @SalfordFaithful will apply which is enough to give me nightmares.

Word up.

Whilst we undoubtedly have a lot of people amongst our support who will have the requisite skill-set to be a fantastic help to Marwan & Martin, will they apply & more importantly will they be selected? I sincerely hope so on both counts.

For a club that has a loyal but limited number of season tickets holders I find it odd that we seem to have so many 'groups' and fans that seem so far apart, not sure of the reason and cant see how it helps the club moving forward

Which advert is this is coming from?

I can't for the life of me see where anyone's dislike for Marwan who is a true Salford fan.

I would suggest there is an agenda.

Much as I like Louise there always seems to be a drama surrounding her which stems from her own past experiences rather than current facts.

As for the 12 people I hope people are picked who don't just think that buying the likes of Slater, Inglis and Burgess is what the Doc wants too hear, I personally hope that one of the things that is promoted heavily is finding a way for the club to become more ingrained in the minds of the Salford community as it used too be many years ago when the club was located more in the heartland of the city.

If the club's social media feeds are representative, we'll struggle to find 12.

I'm not certain on how to upload images on here, but here's an attempt at the article in question;

Utter garbage, I'd say that anyone who calls him/herself a Salford fan who isn't behind Marwan Koukash isn't deep down a Salford fan after all.

I know it's a oft said thing but without him there would be no club.

With that writing style Louise you really should try for a position at the Salford Star, you'd fit in a treat.

I know it's history now but,amongst other things,the article says that John Wilkinson was our most successful chairman ever.
We all liked and respected JW but Brian Snapes family must be confused !

I get the feeling that whoever makes the final 12 'pockets' of fans will want to make negative and maybe destructive comments, as they feel they or there 'gang' are no involved that seems to be the Salford fans way at the min.

Its important to work towards a common goal and moaning about the position of the ground and transport are not things that Martin Vickers and the DOC are not currently aware of and the tired old moaning lines will not improve the club.

Whichever professional sports team you follow, will always have separate groups (“gangs”) amongst their support which will argue between themselves. I have noticed it much more recently with Salford though.

I have read digs on the @SalfordFaithful Twitter account with regards to this specific forum, such as ‘hope non of the Turkey lot apply’ and ‘If they get on then there's no singing, no kids, no beer, no swearing. May as well go to church’ which is pathetic and one of the reasons I said I wouldn’t want anyone who contributed to that account on the panel representing me. How can all members of this forum be classified as one i.e ‘the Turkey lot’?

You will also see plenty of disagreements on here between forum members too, it more than always use to include RED LEAGUE/Mike87 or whatever alias he uses now and Michigan Red has also copped his fair share. Lets not forget the scrap after the Leeds game in the South Stand to between the same set of supporters. Disagreeing over opinions with other supporters is fine with me, but people seem to struggle agreeing to disagree drag personal vendettas on.


My major concern on the fans panel is that it could be a case of those who shout the loudest who will push there selves to the front of the que. I just hope the 12 that are chosen are of a wide range of ages, backgrounds, experiences and above all, act with professionalism and the integrity needed to make this ‘advisory group’ a success.

You raise many a valid point sir

You raise many a valid point sir

I would not of mined being on the panel of 12, but as im not on twitter got no chance at all.

I cannot understand why this 12 were not taken from season ticket holders rather than twitter uses.

I did hear Marwan say on radio manc that he wanted a cross section of fans from high flyers to the local man in the street who are salford fans to help him with ideas to run the club.

From what ive heard of some of the twitters that follow Marwan god help us thats all i can say.

Personally I will be watching from the east stand with my young lad next season. (Leeds game confirmed it)

I don't mind people having what ever time they want, People pay their own money do what they want. Fair doos but i will enjoy myself from the sides
